    Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
     "The main changes in this cycle were:
    
       - Add CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL=y to allow the disabling of the 'full'
         (robustness checked) refcount_t implementation with slightly lower
         runtime overhead. (Kees Cook)
    
         The lighter weight variant is the default. The two variants use the
         same API. Having this variant was a precondition by some
         maintainers to merge refcount_t cleanups.
    
       - Add lockdep support for rtmutexes (Peter Zijlstra)
    
       - liblockdep fixes and improvements (Sasha Levin, Ben Hutchings)
    
       - ... misc fixes and improvements"
